Vittoria 20

A Napoleonic battle game depicting Wellington’s Anglo-Allied army confronting three French armies under King Joseph as the French attempt to withdraw from Spain with thousands of wagon loads of plunder. Players maneuver divisions, attack opposing positions, and protect or capture the baggage train in a focused last-stand engagement. The game uses a low-density map with twenty units or fewer and fast-playing turns. Random event cards and night turns introduce operational pauses and battlefield friction. Each unit represents a division, each hex covers about 800 meters, and turns represent roughly three daylight hours or ten hours at night.
